    please, give argments

    I'm not tlm.

    pkill(1) offers the name based kill at the unix shell level. As you resort to that level for the kill anyway, it may save you some perl programming... or more convincingly - to use perl at all for that specific task.

      That's right - there are UNIX tools.
      Is it better to work with your own $HOME/bin/* tools or to expect all programs
      to be installed on all machines?
